The company's price offer is the most important competitive factor in determining a company's ability to secure contracts to supply private-label footwear to large multi-outlet retailers of athletic footwear in a particular geographic region.
The S/Q ratings of both branded and private-label footwear manufactured at each production plant can be raised through TQM/Six Sigma quality control systems and best practices training.
Five things affect the S/Q rating: The following factors should be taken into account: (1) current-year spending per footwear model for new features and styling; (2) the percentage of superior materials used; (3) current-year expenditures for Total Quality Management (TQM) and/or Six Sigma quality control programs; (4) cumulative expenditures for TQM/Six Sigma quality control efforts (to reflect learning and experience curve effects); and (5) current-year and cumulative expenditures to train employees in using the best practices to assemble athletic footwear.

Answer: $5,000
Explanation:
Per the requirements of qualified plans that permit loans, the maximum amount that an individual can withdraw is whichever is lesser between $50,000 and 50% of their Vested Account Balance.
Vance in this scenario has a vested account balance of $40,000.
50% of that would be $20,000.
That means that he can be loaned $20,000. However, he already has an outstanding loan balance that must be accounted for of 15,000.
Subtracting those figures we have,
= 20,000 - 15,000
= $5,000
The maximum loan that Vance can take from the qualified plan is $5,000
